HZMB Artificial Islands

Tuen Mun Coastline
The dense residential skyscrapers of the New Territories coastline against the backdrop of Castle Peak.
Pearl River Estuary
A bird's-eye view of one of the world's busiest maritime channels filled with cargo vessels.
Tainan Fish Ponds

Qigu Salt Pans

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. During departure from HKG, be ready with your camera within the first 3 minutes to capture the bridge. On arrival, watch for the 'checkerboard' landscape of the wetlands about 10 minutes before landing.

Tian Tan Buddha
The famous Big Buddha statue on Lantau Island may be visible during the initial climb out of HKG.
Lantau Peak
The rugged, sharp ridges of Hong Kong's second-highest peak and the Phoenix Trail.
South China Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue waters and scattered islands of the Wanshan Archipelago.
Kaohsiung Skyline
If the flight path arcs south, you can spot the 85 Sky Tower and the urban sprawl of Kaohsiung.
Anping Old Fort
The historic coastal district of Tainan, marking the site of early Dutch and Chinese settlements.
The right side is better for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side. Look out for the mountainous interior of Lantau Island immediately after takeoff. If the plane approaches TNN from the south, this side offers the best view of the historic Anping area.
